I like this because it gave me the exact direction needed to face the challenges in the Exam.Thank you so much Dr.Pravin,you are a good teacher!!!

For what it covers, a good job - but it could cover so much more

By Farhan R. on 12. June 2016 for How to Prepare for USMLE Step 1

A good general overview of how to approach questions. The advice on reading questions and food during the exam was worth watching. I did not give it a 5 because I feel a more could have been said about a structure for studying, for dealing with anxiety or doubts, for a list of things to check off during the week or days leading up to the exam, etc.
Great speaker with clear explanations, and will be even better if more topics and concerns are addressed.
